New Jersey’s progressive/regressive instrumental metal duo A FUCKING ELEPHANT has loaded up the shrimp wharf with several weeks of provisions for their latest string of shows. The January 2013 tour insanity will kick in this Friday with a semi-local show in New Brunswick, followed by over two weeks of additional cities throughout the East Coast and upper crust of the Midwest set to get the gruesome twosome’s mangled instrumentally-challenging/vocally-challenged live molestation. The duo is touring in support of their greasy new Seven Inches 7”, set for emission via the band’s own Nefarious Industries officially on January 22nd.
To help kick the tour off in style, today A FUCKING ELEPHANT have whipped out Seven Inches for your auditory displeasure via BrooklynVegan. Go wrap your legs (or ears) around both tracks RIGHT HERE.
Featuring two brand new A FUCKING ELEPHANT songs, including the hit single “A Bunch of Good Looking Roundeyes” as well as the opening love anthem “I'm Addicted to Drugs & Sex and I Want You to Choke Me,” the 7” was recorded with engineer Colin Marston (Krallice, Dysrhythmia, Behold… The Arctopus). The wax pressing will be limited to 500 copies overall -- 250 on black vinyl and 250 on yellow -- and will be available early at the shows on the tour.

Kinky riff-twister duo A FUCKING ELEPHANT has completed its latest batch of percussive auditory penetration, and is preparing to drop the Seven Inches 7” on January 22nd.
The New Jersey-based twosome hammered out two gnarly new tracks with engineer Colin Marston (Krallice, Dysrhythmia, Behold… The Arctopus), which will end a two-year release gap, the last new material having been captured onA FUCKING ELEPHANT’s split full-length with cohorts El Drugstore nearly two years ago. As with the split, Seven Inches will pop out on Nefarious Industries, the indie label formed by deviants from both bands. The wax pressing will be limited to 500 copies overall -- 250 on black vinyl and 250 on yellow -- in addition to the tracks being available digitally.
Get freaky with the artwork for Seven Inches, created by Eric Nyffeler/Doe-Eyed Design, live footage of “I'm Addicted To Drugs And Sex And I Want You To Choke Me” -- the a-side of the 7” -- and other AFE tomfoolery RIGHT HERE.
Simply but aptly comprised of guitarist Matt Keys and drummer Greg Meisenberg, A FUCKING ELEPHANT has been assaulting basements and forcing acoustic trauma since 2007. In conjunction with Seven Inches slipping out, A FUCKING ELEPHANT will pack up the shrimp boat and set sail on a stateside tour in support of the wax attack. With the final few engagements of this latest DIY venture still being locked down, the tour is set to molest a total of seventeen cities throughout the East Coast and upper crust of the Midwest, with things getting greasy with a semi-local kickoff show in New Brunswick on January 4th. Shows will be updated over the coming days via the AFE Facebook and Earsplit tours page.
